God was just an option

God was just an option if you have a Plan B True faith in God means trusting Him wholeheartedly, without fallback options or contingencies. Yet, many claim to believe in God's provision while secretly crafting a "Plan B" in case He doesn’t come through. This duality reveals an underlying problem—unbelief. Consider this: You pray to God for financial provision, asking Him to meet your needs. Your words proclaim faith, but your actions betray doubt. You’ve already lined up alternative solutions—a loan from a friend, dipping into savings, or even compromising your values to secure income. While these may seem practical, they signal a lack of confidence in God’s power and timing. The Bible is clear: "But without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him" (Hebrews 11:6). Faith requires total reliance on God, trusting that His provision will come, even when the situation seems dire. To have a Plan B is to doubt God’s ability to act, reducing Him to just another option rather than the ultimate source. Abraham’s story teaches us this. When promised a son, he and Sarah doubted and turned to their own plan—having Ishmael through Hagar. The result? Strife and complications. This demonstrates the danger of relying on human schemes instead of waiting on God’s promise. Faith is not easy. It often means standing firm when logic screams otherwise. But true faith abandons all fallback plans, choosing instead to trust God completely. To truly believe in God for provision is to say, "Lord, I trust You, and You alone. If You don’t provide, I will still trust You." Let go of Plan B. Trusting God fully is not only an act of faith—it’s an act of worship.
